Homi Japanese Ramen — Restaurant in Sunnyvale

Entered without being greeted to "irashai mase!" A classic and authentic greeting in Japanese restaurants. Instead we were quickly rushed to a seat, given hot tea without asking for it (and when I mentioned my wife is pregnant the waitress, Chinese, said "oh I don't know anything about the tea."

When I tried to order the first time she hurried off without a care in the world and when I finally kept her attention and ordered, she was very fast and not personable at all. There was no "hello, how are you?" Or even a greeting of any kind.

When we received our "authentic ramen" it turned out to be far from it. My wife, from Osaka Japan, even commented on this.

Cucumbers and tomatoes in a vegetarian Ramen?

I was also confused. Even the mushrooms weren't authentic.

I had ordered vegetarian miso Ramen with tofu, to which they blasted my Ramen bowl with an assortment of random vegetables without a care (see image)

My wife ordered the chefs special, which was mixed meat and seafood. And her Ramen had no flavor to it, wasn't hot at all, and the meat wasn't good

If this was advertised as a chinese cuisine, or an Asian cuisine with different dishes, including Ramen, and not framed as "authentic Japanese ramen" I would have given it 3 stars. I only gave 2 because the meal was somewhat palpable, delivered quick, and somewhat cozy...

Edit: came back and ordered their yakisoba, at least that's what I think it was supposed to be. I had it to go because I really didnt want to be there and I came with a friend. It tasted more like chow mein to be honest, the seasoning wasn't really like anything japanese. But honestly, it was tasty and packaged very well. Adding a star because there is some hope. I just don't trust the ramen or the curry.

Came in with my brother not too long ago, he ordered beef curry and I think I had the Tonkatsu ramen. Coming in I should have noticed that nobody seated was eating ramen, when I ordered mine it was really salty and the charsiu was light grey with a tint of green. I did not trust my food enough to try to finish it. The curry tasted like the instant kind- golden curry? Either way I was really disappointed. I wish I could say more about the place, like the staff, but the woman at the front only really spoke to my brother and didnt even smile at me as I ordered. I plan to come back some day, I hope my experience is...

Love the homemade meatball ramen noodle soup! The best!!!!

Ok i'm editing my early review because this place is AWESOME!!! this is like the 3rd time i come back to this place, i've tried the homemade meatball ramen noodle soup, really, really good, decided to try something NEW! Went with the oyaka bowl(i have to say i made a smart choice by choosing this bowl, highly recommend it! If i could make this bowl better i would ask for some soy sauce next time or some hot sauce, i love my food spicy) the staff is super friendly!!! They even gave me a cup of brown rice tea to try while i waited for my order!(sadly i couldn't finish it & they didn't have to go cups for tea) I am so coming back to this place & bringing some friends this time! Prices are super cheap!!! If i could give this place more than 5 stars i would give it...
